Test Preparation

  1. Ensure that travel test ground must be hard and as level as possible.

  2. Ensure that travel control levers can be fully shifted.

  3. Support the machine so that both tracks are lifted off the ground.

Test Procedure

  1. Start the engine.

  2. Increase the hydraulic oil temperature to 55° ± 5°C (131° ± 9°F).

  3. Put a mark on a shoe of each of the raised tracks.

  4. Place the engine speed dial in the HIGH IDLE position.

  5. Place the travel speed control switch in HIGH position.

  6. With the machine supported off the ground, move the travel levers to full travel position.

  7. Measure the time that is required for the tracks to make three complete revolutions. Measure the time that is required in each direction.

  8. Place the travel speed control switch in the LOW position and repeat Steps 6 through 7.

  9. Check the recorded times and compare the times with the values listed in Table 1.

Note: With the travel control levers fully shifted, travel turn should be insignificant when either the stick cylinder or bucket cylinder is activated.

Note: Right and left travel control levers shall return to NEUTRAL position from any PARTIALLY or FULLY shifted position.

Note: Both tracks shall start to move simultaneously when both travel control levers are shifted together.
